If your child enjoys the library... submitted by rekha on June 28, 2015, 10:06pm then you should definitely borrow this book. I enjoyed learning about Ms. Moore as much as my daughter.
An early feminist.

And lawyer, almost. Then tragedy altered her plans to librarian. She really championed books for children at the library. Nice book to read to little ones. 5/5
